《求聞》快訊：香港用戶組正擬定友善空間方針
編輯
【《求聞》廣東深圳5月15日訊】新香港用戶組正在擬定他們對應的「友善空間方針」（Friendly Space Policy），並向組內成員徵求意見。
「友善空間方針」是維基媒體各個地方自治體，乃至維基媒體基金會自身舉辦任何活動都需要制定的方針。這一方針不針對線上、站內活動，而是針對線下實體活動。所有受維基媒體基金會認可、或從維基媒體基金會受領款項的線下活動，都需要在基金會自己的友善空間方針的基礎上，再細化各自的友善空間方針。友善空間方針也是基金會「讓活動安全」（Keeping Events Safe）大方向下的一部分。不經過基金會資助的活動，可以不受基金會友善空間方針的約束，也無需自己制定友善空間方針。

《求聞》快訊：維基媒體基金會敦促中國當局解除對維基百科的封鎖
編輯 
【基金會網站5月17日消息】 維基媒體基金會在網站上發表文章表示，他們已經確定，維基百科在中國大陸地區無法訪問。這影響了超過13億的讀者、學生、專業人士、研究人員，以及其他人，使得他們再也無法訪問這個資源庫，也無法將他們的知識與成果與全世界分享。維基媒體基金會提到，在此之前，他們沒有獲得任何通知或預兆，表明為何現在進行封鎖，或者當前的封鎖發生的原因。
維基媒體基金會表示，根據他們的內部流量報告，目前維基百科的所有語言版本均已被屏蔽。其他的維基媒體項目，如維基共享資源，仍然可以訪問。在中國大陸，2004年以來，維基百科一直處於斷斷續續被屏蔽的狀態。2015年6月以來，中文維基百科始終無法訪問，而在這次封鎖之前，絕大多數其他語言版本的維基百科仍然可供使用。
維基媒體基金會在文章中認為，開放獲取知識是一項基本人權。中國和土耳其兩年多來對維基百科實施的網絡封鎖都是對這一權利的侵犯，減少了世界收集和分享知識的能力。維基媒體基金會還認為，當一個國家、地區或文化不能加入維基百科上的全球對話時，整個世界都會受到損失。
維基媒體基金會表示，他們致力於允許任何地方的任何人自由訪問、分享和協作構建維基百科上的知識。維基媒體基金會進一步提到，他們對中國當局進一步限制網際網路自由的決定感到遺憾，並敦促他們恢復維基百科的正常訪問。

【《求聞》廣東深圳5月18日訊】新成立的香港維基社群用戶組16日發布一份聲明，以用戶組的名義反對在香港廣受爭議的《2019年〈逃犯條例〉修改草案》。
新香港用戶組聯絡員13日在香港維基人布告板上公開了一份草擬的聲明，稱對成員進行為期三日的公開諮詢，允許成員在此期間對聯絡員草擬的聲明發表意見，並向香港用戶組訂閱列表里的用戶發送大量消息告知。因無人在布告板上就草擬的聲明表達任何意見，16日香港用戶組在其元維基頁面上發布了該聲明的英文翻譯版，宣布該聲明獲得香港用戶組成員認同，沒有在中文維基站內進一步通知；截至發稿時，也沒有將聲明轉發在其社交平台等處。
聲明內容傾向反對《逃犯條例》修訂的泛民派看法。聲明說，該修訂案如果通過，將「極有可能」阻礙「維基媒體運動在香港提供現有服務的權利」；並稱因為在中國內地無法訪問維基百科,香港用戶組「關切」「這項法案帶來的寒蟬效應」， 以及「令維基媒體運動在香港提供服務的權利失去保護」的問題。聲明還呼籲衝突各方保持冷靜克制，希望特區政府撤回草案，並就該草案的內容廣泛徵求各界意見。

《求聞》快訊：韓國維基分會正式成立
編輯 【基金會網站4月23日文章】今年早些時候，韓國維基媒體用戶組被維基媒體基金會正式承認為後者在韓國的地方分會，辦公室設在首爾。該分會將在韓國促進人們對維基百科的了解，並吸引更多人加入這個全部由志願者貢獻的自由知識庫。
維基媒體地方分會是在世界各地支持維基百科及其自由分享知識的使命的獨立、非營利組織。目前，除韓國分會外，還有37個維基媒體的地方分會。
目前，韓語維基百科是韓國閱讀量最大的維基百科版本。其約有50萬篇條目，每月點閱量超過7000萬次。撰寫韓語維基百科的是一群被稱為「維基人」的編輯志願者，他們用可靠的來源資料創建和改進科學、流行文化、藝術等方面的各種條目。
韓國維基媒體協會已在乙支大學、翰林大學和檀國大學舉辦過一系列講座，並將在接下來的一年中支持維基百科和大學、圖書館的更多合作活動。該分會將繼續通過訓練聯繫並指導新人加入維基百科並為之貢獻。

【《求聞》北京5月20日訊】基金會緩存伺服器在19日（星期日）出現故障，使部分頁面存取時報HTTP 503錯誤。根據基金會技術維護部門的故障報告，位於美國維吉尼亞州阿什本的eqiad數據中心出現故障。故障導致約90萬個HTTP請求被報503錯，主要集中於協調世界時5時至5時40分。
【《求聞》北京5月21日訊】維基媒體基金會今日發布了半年一次的透明度報告，報告期限為2018年7月至12月。報告數據顯示，中國向維基媒體基金會提交了一個要求撤下維基媒體項目內容的請求，但同其他四百餘個請求一樣，基金會沒有允許。中文維基百科（若不計同時向多個語言發出的請求）收到了一個要求撤下內容的請求。最新報告可在 https://transparency.wikimedia.org/ 獲取。
【《求聞》編譯組北京5月23日訊】據英國《金融時報》報道，維基百科的上級機構維基媒體基金會向歐盟高峰會下轄的歐洲人權法院遞交了一份要求土耳其當局立刻解除對維基百科屏蔽的申請。維基媒體基金會認為土耳其當局對維基百科的屏蔽是「對表達自由權的侵犯」。
土耳其自2017年4月開始屏蔽維基百科，至今兩年有餘。外界普遍認為土耳其是為了進一步壓制前一年的政變才屏蔽的。土耳其政府要求維基百科移除其中有關敘利亞內戰條目和土耳其政府支持的恐怖分子相關的信息。維基百科拒絕了土耳其政府的要求。
《金融時報》報道稱，維基媒體基金會兩年前向土耳其憲法法院提出上訴，希望扭轉土當局的封鎖，但基金會法律部門總管史蒂芬·拉波特說土耳其當局「什麼都沒有做」。因此，維基媒體基金會下一步將這一案件帶到更高層級的歐洲人權法院。
【《求聞》北京5月26日訊】維基媒體基金會向歐盟高峰會下轄的歐洲人權法院遞交了一份要求土耳其當局立刻解除對維基百科屏蔽的申請。維基媒體基金會認為土耳其當局對維基百科的屏蔽是「對表達自由權的侵犯」。
土耳其自2017年4月開始屏蔽維基百科，至今兩年有餘。外界普遍認為土耳其是為了進一步壓制前一年的政變才屏蔽的。土耳其政府要求維基百科移除其中有關敘利亞內戰條目和土耳其政府支持的恐怖分子相關的信息。維基百科拒絕了土耳其政府的要求。
基金會在其網站上發布了一份措辭強硬的聲明。聲明同時使用英語和土耳其語發布。基金會在聲明中說，基金會採取的這一措施是「繼續我們認為知識和自由表達的是人人都享有的基本權利的承諾」。
世界多國媒體對維基媒體基金會的這一動作做出了報道。
媒體普遍認為，土耳其當局2017年4月開始屏蔽維基百科時，正值該國從前一年未遂政變的餘波中。《金融時報》報道說，土當局對維基百科的封鎖是該國政府在總統埃爾多安領導下，擔心表達自由引發進一步動盪所致。未遂政變後，埃爾多安對政變支持者進行了一場大清洗。
英國廣播公司（BBC）駐土耳其記者、分析師馬克·洛文說，自己經常遇到在網上搜索什麼東西，搜索結果裡帶了一個維基百科的連結，結果點進去卻發現維基百科是打不開的。他認為，土耳其作為一個還想要加入歐盟的國家，居然還會屏蔽維基百科，實在是非常諷刺。他介紹到，土耳其人大多會使用虛擬專用網（VPN）或維基百科的鏡像站來訪問，但對於大多數人來說還是太過麻煩。

【《求聞》福建廈門5月23日訊】台灣維基媒體協會剛剛發布了一份聲明（「新聞稿」，press release）。聲明指一名台灣維基人有偽造文書的嫌疑，被台灣分會拒絕往來。聲明說台灣分會提醒收到該用戶合作邀請者應留意違約風險，並對其宣稱之社群影響力多方查證。台灣分會還在其臉書頁面刊登了同樣的消息。
【《求聞》北京5月25日訊】中國大陸維基人用戶組負責監視網絡情況的小組證實，自2019年4月23日所有語言維基百科在中國大陸無法訪問以來，5月9日出現了屏蔽擴大的情況。4月23日的屏蔽只針對各個語言的維基百科，但諸如維基語錄、維基共享資源、元維基等其他維基媒體計劃沒有受到影響。自北京時間5月9日早晨開始，全國解析維基媒體基金會旗下除維基百科外的其他項目時，也出現了DNS解析結果被污染的情況。這一污染在9日全天斷斷續續，各地區、域名受污染情況不一。這使得在未經過任何特殊配置的設備上，直接訪問除維基百科外的其他維基媒體計劃連接不穩定。這一污染在9日晚間逐步解除，次日完全恢復正常。我們認為這有可能是審查機構技術出錯所致。
這類僅持續一天甚至幾小時的污染比較常見，曾經發生過數次。數月前也有一次全語言維基百科遭到屏蔽，但十幾小時後就被解封的情況。
另外，在4月23日的封鎖之前，我們發現使用中國教育和科研計算機網（CERNET）的用戶無法通過其IPv6骨幹網訪問維基媒體基金會在美國舊金山的ulsfo伺服器IP。這一屏蔽只針對IP，且只存在在教育網IPv6出口上。這一屏蔽沒有對教育網用戶訪問維基媒體計劃造成任何額外影響，因為瀏覽器會在IPv6地址無法接通的情況下，回落使用IPv4訪問。中國電信、中國聯通和中國移動的IPv6骨幹網訪問ulsfo的IP位址正常。
【《求聞》北京6月3日訊】著名服裝品牌The North Face，通常俗稱「北臉」，及其所僱傭的一家廣告公司被逮到利用維基百科在搜尋引擎中的高權重來給自己的品牌進行宣傳。
英文維基百科《路標》月刊引述市場宣傳領域網媒「廣告時代」（Ad age）說，「北臉」公司讓李奧貝納廣告公司幫忙替換掉英文維基上某些世界名勝條目里所使用的照片，而被用來替代的照片，是「北臉」有意擺拍的：擺拍的照片裡除了該有的世界名勝之外，還有一個穿著」北臉「服飾的人。而在「北臉」和李奧貝納廣告公司合作炮製的照片裡，「北臉」的logo總是清晰可見。
鑑於大多數人用谷歌之類的網站搜索時，會直接點擊搜索結果的第一項。而除了百度之外大多數搜尋引擎是不能夠通過直接付費的方式來提升自己網站排名的（而百度可以通過臭名昭著的「競價排名」來直接提升自己網站在搜索結果里的位置）；而維基百科在谷歌等搜尋引擎里權重地位較高，被維基百科放在有關名勝介紹上的照片自然也更容易獲得谷歌等的青睞。「北臉」公司在得逞後吹噓自己技倆的一個視頻中展示了數個被「北臉」和李奧貝納廣告公司成功移花接木的維基百科條目。他們在替換了這些名勝條目旁邊的圖片後，視頻展示谷歌圖片搜索果真就把這些被「北臉」故意替換的圖片放在了首位。用戶只需要點擊大圖，「北臉」的logo一覽無遺。

The Expedition to Lapland, the northernmost region in Sweden, by Carl Linnaeus in 1732 was an important part of his scientific career. Linnaeus departed from Uppsala and travelled clockwise around the coast of the Gulf of Bothnia over the course of six months, making major inland incursions from Umeå, Luleå and Tornio. His observations became the basis of his book Flora Lapponica (1737) in which Linnaeus』 ideas about nomenclature and classification were first used in a practical way.[2] Linnaeus kept a journal of his expedition which was first published posthumously as an English translation called Lachesis Lapponica: A Tour in Lapland (1811).

【本刊訊】2019年維基媒體基金會的董事選舉正在進行。本次選舉最大的亮點是，董事會成員中兩名原本由分會和專題組織通過投票任命的成員，投票的範圍由僅分會和專題組織擴大為包含用戶組在內的所有獲基金會認可的地方自治體組織。
維基媒體運動中的「地方自治體」分為三類：分會、專題組織和用戶組。分會即包括台灣分會、德國分會等按照區域劃分的組織，有四十多家；專題組織目前維基媒體裡只有一家，稍後會提及；而用戶組則有百餘個。用戶組可以針對某一主題（如亞洲月、LGBT等），也可以針對某一地區。而在成立分會之前，先建立針對該地區的用戶組是必經之路。《求聞》先前報道過韓國用戶組升格成分會的消息。
跟總共加在一起有一百五十個的分會和用戶組不同，專題組織目前在維基媒體上只有一個。雖然原則上基金會不控制專題組織的數量，但其他大多數組織多歸為用戶組或分會，留給專題組織的空間不大。唯一的一家專題組織是針對歐洲加泰隆尼亞文化的「摯友維基」組織。
今年1月基金會章程變動，賦予了受基金會承認的用戶組參與董事會選舉投票的權利。這一變動將原來僅四十多家分會和專題組織的投票直接擴大到所有地方自治體，給不針對某一地區的用戶組，或還未升格成分會的用戶組更大的話語權。投票以每個地方自治體一票的形式呈現，跟用戶組或分會覆蓋的地理位置、成員人數等無關。也就是說，地方自治體的成員需要聚在一起來確定自己組織的票將投給誰。
中文社群方面，台灣分會的代表上官良治和不久前剛獲基金會認證的新香港用戶組代表「1233」參與了投票。獲基金會認證的所謂「中國維基媒體用戶組」代表羅小周沒有參與投票。

【《求聞》深圳6月12日訊】中文維基百科有史以來第一次在首頁橫幅、滾動公告欄、更換logo乃至關站一天等顯眼方式呼籲或紀念某事就發生在剛剛。新香港用戶組在頂部滾動公告欄（Advanced Site Notice，經常簡稱為ASN）刊登了該組反對《逃犯條例》的聲明。
香港用戶組聯絡人員「1233」昨天在ASN的討論頁遞交了編輯請求，稱有內部共識，要將香港用戶組先前反對《逃犯條例》的聲明以顯眼的黑框白字橫幅呈現在滾動公告欄上。今天上午，管理員Shizhao將有關內容貼上ASN。但據討論頁的記錄，兩位認為因為ASN公告欄大多公告只有一行，而香港用戶組的聲明占地太大，在公告欄滾動的時候影響用戶正常瀏覽，因而不到十分鐘就將其撤下。目前，這段橫幅的代碼在ASN中是注釋狀態；而提議此事的香港維基人1233更新了他在編輯請求里的橫幅代碼，換為更簡潔的抗議，而不是橫幅。
ASN討論頁里並沒有太多維基人參與是否應該放置該橫幅的討論。中文維基百科此前曾多次提議通過橫幅、滾動公告欄、更換logo等方式紀念或抗議，比如2008年和2009年就中文維基百科是否應該對汶川大地震表示哀悼，將左上方維基球換成黑白或整頁塗黑、《禁止網絡盜版法案》（SOPA）抗議等，但這些討論都沒有通過；而現在放置的這個新香港用戶組對《逃犯條例》的聲明，是中文維基百科第一次通過橫幅等顯眼方式向讀者大眾表態抗議。外語維基曾經因為抗議法案等原因，出現過大幅橫幅、更換logo等抗議方式，在抗議《禁止網絡盜版法案》和歐盟新版權法中，德語等數個語言維基百科因此關站一天。但這類由社群（而非基金會）策劃的抗議活動在中文維基百科上從來沒有發生過。以是否應該就汶川地震悼念一事的討論和投票來說，大多數維基人以「如果悼念了汶川，那麼接下來其他自然災害是否也要悼念」為理由反對。

【《求聞》編譯組北京6月12日電】基金會「信任與安全」團隊（Trust and safety）以基金會行動的方式封禁英文維基百科管理員Fram一事已進入第二天。此事在英文維基百科引發極大轟動，大多數英文維基人認為用戶Fram不應該被封禁，且對基金會在過去兩天內給出的解釋表達強烈不滿。有關Fram被禁制一事的討論頁的純文字wikitext已達500多KB。據Fram本人解釋，他被禁制的最後導火索是在英文維基站內說了「操他媽的」（fuck）和「狗屁」（bullshit）。英文維基用戶開始向吉米·威爾士的用戶討論頁尋求幫助，一些用戶甚至主張應該封禁基金會WMFOffice的帳號、到WMFOffice的用戶討論頁上仿造警告模板「警告基金會」來發洩憤怒。英文維基一管理員根據社群討論，頂著基金會行動把Fram解封，但Fram數小時後又被基金會封了回去，同時解封Fram的管理員權限被基金會剝奪一個月。此舉招致了更大的反對，截止發稿時另一名管理員又解封了Fram，但WMFOffice還沒有做出任何動作，可能是因為美國西海岸還沒有到上班時間。截至目前，已經有兩名英文維基百科管理員表態因為Fram被基金會禁制而準備辭職抗議；另外還有人對基金會的解釋極其不滿，準備在英文維基鼓動管理員罷工。美國西海岸又一個新工作日即將開始，事態還將出現進一步變化。《求聞》將持續報道有關Fram被禁制一事的情況。

【《求聞》廈門7月14日訊】台灣地區教育事務主管部門今天在其網站發布新聞稿，介紹台灣地區少數民族語言維基百科的建設和發展狀況。
新聞稿說，今年1月台灣地區實行了新的語言保護規定，促使該部門重視台灣地區少數民族語言的發展建設。該部門認為，當前這些少數民族語言所面臨的最大困難，是因為「不能流傳而成為瀕危語言」，而為了扭轉這一現狀，該部門與台灣政治大學「原住民族研究中心」合作，通過創建這些瀕危語言的維基百科，讓這些語言「國際化」，激發少數民族對自己「族語」的熱愛，來實現保護髮揚這些語言的目的。
創建新的維基百科語言版本，需要先在維基孵育場給這些新語言進行「孵化」，待到社群和條目數量增長到一定程度，才能申請「zh」「en」等自己獨立的子項目。目前已經正式成為維基百科之一的語言共有294個，然而，語言學家認為，世界上所有的語言有上千種。這些在漢人遷入台灣前的原住民族大多講「南島語系」中的語言。漢人遷入後，現代標準漢語（「國語」）和台灣閩南話（「台語」）成為主流，而原住民族使用的語言逐漸式微，直至近十餘年才逐漸重視對他們的保護工作。與台灣少數民族語言關係更近、同屬南島語系的，還有印度尼西亞、馬來西亞、越南、菲律賓等地的一些語言。

【《求聞》廈門7月4日訊】2018年台灣地區「九合一」選舉中，在高雄市落敗韓國瑜的民進黨候選人陳其邁條目日前遭人篡改，引發台媒關注。
除此之外還有其他報道：
【《求聞》編譯組北京7月8日電】今天凌晨，號稱是中文維基百科長期破壞者「影武者」在互助客棧消息版和求助版留言稱自己將停止對維基百科的破壞。
聲明中，他稱因為家境因素，從此將「開始認真找工作」，大意為自己平時在維基百科上破壞不務正業，越陷越深。他現在決定「戒掉」維基百科，重回正常生活。
號稱是「影武者」的這個人使用了台灣大哥大的IP位址，但近一年來，影武者用於破壞的IP位址大多為台灣中華電信某段IPv6。因此，發表這份聲明的IP用戶是不是影武者本人仍不確定。
影武者是中文維基百科最嚴重的破壞者。該用戶自2006年6月開始活躍並進行破壞，至今長達13年。一般認為其本名為「林浩生」，是台灣新北市人，現年42歲。但有關資料的真實性仍待考證。「影武者」是其註冊的第一個帳號。除了中文維基百科外，該用戶還破壞日語、英語等其他語言以及維基共享資源等。在中文維基百科上，該用戶自2006年至今，已被確認的傀儡帳號將近2000個，被用於破壞的IP更是不計其數。

人神之間於2008年10月當選管理員，至今已逾10年。他也是「中國維基媒體用戶組」的成員和所謂「協調員」之一。2015年，人神之間的管理員帳號「被盜」，在經時任行政員的菲姑除權後，又宣稱找回，重新賦予了管理員權限。

The Duesenberg Model A was the first automobile in series production to have hydraulic brakes and the first automobile in series production in the United States with a straight-eight engine. Officially known as the Duesenberg Straight Eight, the Model A was first shown in late 1920 in New York City. Production was delayed by substantial changes to the design of the car, including a change in the engine valvetrain from horizontal overhead valves to an overhead camshaft; also during this time, the company had moved its headquarters and factory from New Jersey to Indiana. The Model A was manufactured in Indianapolis, Indiana, from 1921 to 1925 by the Duesenberg Automobiles and Motors Company and from 1925 to 1926 at the same factory by the restructured Duesenberg Motor Company. The successors to the company began referring to the car as the Model A when the Model J was introduced.

【基金會網站8月14日文章】原文地址
來自近80個國家的800多名與會者聚集在瑞典斯德哥爾摩，參加第15屆維基媒體國際會議。 8月14日至18日，維基媒體國際會議召集了那些使維基百科和其他維基媒體項目百科成為可能的志願者。在過去的5天的時間裡，與會者將聚集在一起討論維基媒體的未來，以及免費知識在創造一個更加公平的世界中的作用。
今年的維基媒體國際會議圍繞著一個廣泛的主題。更加強大：維基媒體、自由知識和可持續發展目標，強調了維基媒體的共同願望、自由知識以及聯合國，以解決世界上一些最重要的問題。
聯合國於2015年頒布了17個可持續發展目標。他們呼籲世界聯合起來，為生活在其中的每一個人創造一個更美好的世界。2019年維基媒體國際會議旨在激勵其與會者考慮維基媒體運動如何參與並實現這些目標，包括優質教育、性別多樣性和環境可持續性等。
維基媒體基金會執行主任凱薩琳·馬赫（Katherine Maher）說：「維基媒體國際會議是我們全球自由知識運動的慶祝活動，也是我們聚在一起所能取得的成就。只有通過合作，我們才能實現我們為2030年所制定的雄心勃勃的目標，並為後代創造一個更強大，更公平，更可持續的世界。」
為了響應瑞典對可持續發展的承諾以及今年會議的主題，維基媒體國際會議將在整個活動期間推出幾項新的可持續發展措施。這次會議將首次通過社會企業組織Terrapass的碳補償完全實現碳中和。除了利用碳補償外，會議組織者還在活動中引入了其他可持續措施，包括印在種子紙上的名牌、可重複使用的水瓶、不使用一次性塑料等措施，以及今年會議的網上專項計劃，以儘量減少紙張使用。

今天，突尼斯自由知識倡導者埃瑪·米祖尼（Emna Mizouni）被評為2019年度維基人。該獎項是為了表彰她在全球維基媒體運動中，特別是在阿拉伯和非洲社區中所發揮的鼓舞人心的領導作用，以及她在提高人們對突尼斯悠久歷史和文化的認識方面所做的不懈努力。 Emna是突尼斯首都和最大城市突尼斯市的終身居民。從歷史上看，突尼斯位於西地中海和東地中海之間，因為它的戰略位置而使它成為古迦太基帝國的首都，這個國家的定居點分布在從西班牙到北非和科西嘉島的海岸線上。它在公元前164年被摧毀，但在倭馬亞哈里發（Umayyad Caliphate）下再次崛起，在那裡，現存的大部分古城都被建造了起來……
| “ | 年度最佳維基人獎由維基百科創始人吉米 · 威爾斯在維基媒體國際會議上頒發，這個會議是為了慶祝維基百科、維基維基媒體項目，以及為他們做出貢獻的志願者。今年，他和2018年度維基百科年度人物Farhad Fatkullin一起出席了2019年維基百科年度閉幕式。 | ” |

維基媒體基金會獎助金發放程序的改革
編輯以運作維基媒體基金會補助計劃而知名的維基媒體基金會社群資源小組，在發布2018-19年度報告的同時，宣布了其資助項目類型的重大變化。在7月份發給Wikimedia-I郵件列表的一封電子郵件中，基金會代表宣布，最多資助2000美元的快速補助將不再為旅行、設備、維基媒體聚會等項目提供補助。編輯聚會、攝影活動、宣傳活動、視頻活動和「其他」活動仍然會得到補助。提交補助申請必須在一個月的1號到15號之間進行。
印度維基媒體協會的撤銷承認
編輯2019年7月14日，印度報紙《浦那鏡報》報道稱，維基媒體地方自治體委員會（AffCom）將撤銷對印度維基媒體協會（Wikimedia India，WM India）的承認，後者將失去維基媒體運動地方自治體的資格，官方的認可和補助的資格。該協會會員反對這一決定，並在Wikimedia-I郵件列表表示了「印度維基媒體協會對公平透明聽證會的需求」，還在WikimediaIndia-I中繼續討論。截止現在，對於對於地方自治體的撤銷許可還沒有一個特定流程，各種社會壓力也阻止WM India、基金會和AffCom在維基上的公開發言。透明度的挑戰使得一位社群成員評論道：「令人驚訝的是，社群居然從媒體那裡了解到（WM India）不再被認可的消息。」

維基媒體基金會和聯合國人權高級專員辦事處（人權高專辦）正在開展協作，以支持在維基媒體網站上創建與人權相關的內容。
我們堅信，自由獲取知識是一項基本人權。不論在哪裡，人們都應能了解世界。我們為參與這場致力於培養領袖、貢獻者、倡導者和合作者的，多樣化的、持久的、蓬勃發展的維基媒體運動而自豪。
這次協作的成功實現離不開維基媒體阿根廷分會的工作。該分會的維基人權計劃（WikiDerechosHumanos）在過去幾年間大幅擴充了維基媒體旗下站點的人權知識庫。今年7月，他們在布宜諾斯艾利斯以邀請編輯志願者和聯合國有關官員參與編輯松的方式開始了本次協作。維基媒體阿根廷分會將會領導和促進這次協作計劃，並把這一協作帶向世界。
通過與聯合國人權高專辦的協作，我們希望加強來自世界各地的維基人創建、提升和擴充所有維基媒體計劃（包括維基百科的300多種語言版本）中有關人權的內容，並將其與各地實際情況相結合。如此一來，世界各地的人民將獲得了解和保護基本人權的自由工具。
本次協作是在2019年維基媒體國際會議上公布的。維基媒體國際會議是維基媒體基金會為其旗下包含維基百科的各計劃編者舉行的年會。今年的維基媒體國際會議上，基金會執行董事凱薩琳·馬赫和聯合國人權高專辦對外關係負責人勞倫特·索維爾簽署了合作備忘錄。今年12月將會開始一場全球範圍內的運動。

邱文 著
最近一些人在站內某些場合提到《求聞》的部分內容和《求聞》預告刊登的文章。這些提及《求聞》的討論，有一些是善意的，是一個正常維基人讀者的合理猜測、正常想法；然而，另一些不懷好意者繼續恬不知恥地拿《求聞》中的內容做文章，試圖進一步挑撥社群關係。
《求聞》的前身是中國大陸維基人用戶組內部參閱的情況報告。隨著用戶組人數不斷增加，對國際、地區社群動態信息的需求量也隨之增長，曾經的內部參閱報告不再能夠滿足用戶組成員需求；同時，用戶組聯絡員也認為有必要擴大報告的讀者範圍，讓組外人士，乃至整個中文維基社群都能獲悉各地社群動態，進而決定創立《求聞》，讓全維基的人都能更便利地獲取外界信息。再加上，原本的內部報告給少數人看也是看，給全社群的人看又不會徒增麻煩，獨樂樂何不如眾樂樂？
中文維基社群在獲取國際信息上有先天劣勢：只要想想元維基的steward監管員已經多少年沒有懂中文的用戶擔任這一點就不難理解。外界信息普遍以英文為主，而中文維基人在收集、匯總英文信息上總是或多或少地存在障礙；同時，維基上的社群信息分散在基金會網站、各個語言社群各自的媒體等等，《求聞》起到的總結彙編作用變得格外重要。
其他簡訊摘要：
【東京9月6日電】日本維基人「さえぼー」於9月3日參加日本TBS電視台深夜訪談節目「松子不知道的世界」，介紹了維基百科的創作、編寫、維護工作，節目以「維基百科『背後的人』登場」「維基百科的世界」為題。
【北京9月7日電】維基媒體基金會7日在其網站上發表一份聲明，說自己的伺服器遭到了分布式拒絕服務（DDoS）攻擊，並導致網站服務在部分國家不可使用。聲明里，基金會譴責了這一攻擊行為，並稱正在努力解決。
【北京9月8日電】歷時兩個月的中文維基百科第17次動員令於9月8日順利結束。截至北京時間9月8日下午5時，本次動員令一共有162人報名參加，一共貢獻了878條條目，其中達到動員令標準的條目為783條，參與改善工程的條目為203條。
【深圳9月9日電】香港新用戶組（香港維基社群用戶組）2019-20年度的理事會選舉於8日結束。按照流程，香港用戶組理事會由2-4名用戶組成，如候選人數量大於4人，則會開啟投票程序；否則所有被提名者自動當選。本次理事會選舉候選人恰好只有4人，因此全部當選。當選的四人分別是「だ＊ぜ」「無聊龍」「1233」和「WhisperToMe」。這四人的任期將從2019年9月28日持續到2020年9月27日。此前香港用戶組的理事會成員有三人，分別是「1233」「WhisperToMe」和「Billytanghh」。自28日起，「Billytanghh」將卸任理事，另外兩人連任理事。
【瀋陽9月13日電】於今日舉辦的瀋陽聚會圓滿結束。共6人參加。
【北京9月13日電】中國大陸維基人用戶組部分成員和部分而組外維基人於昨天和今天舉辦了擴大會議。會議通過網絡語音方式進行，總共進行了約6個小時。這是WMC首次使用網絡語音的形式進行此類活動。各位維基人就各自關心的問題交換了意見，討論了諸如本次動員令等事務。參加者總共約25人，包括WMC組內和組外成員。
會議敲定了接下來北京聚會的時間為10月7日。報名工作將不日開始。
【北京9月14日電】管理員候選人「蟲蟲飛」以47票支持、8票反對、4票中立通過了管理員選舉。行政員已經賦權。

During the last half of the 18th century the church was partially buried by sand from nearby dunes; the congregation had to dig out the entrance each time a service was to be held.

《求聞》專題關注：今日之玉環，今日之大陸地方志編輯活動
編輯 
《今日玉環》是中國共產黨玉環市委員會的機關報，在1956年創辦之始名為《玉環報》，是玉環縣最大的報紙，面向玉環縣的18萬人口（1956年人口統計為181581人）。玉環縣在2017年4月撤縣設市，成為擁有43萬以上人口的城市。在一些統計口徑數據上，它的人口甚至達到了60萬。隨著經濟市場發展，玉環人通過填海造地、改善行業結構，幾代人不懈努力，塑造了當今的玉環——一個以旅遊、新型農業、汽車零部件業為特點，迅速發展的新興城市。今日之玉環，與五六十年前的小縣城不可同日而語。
當然，這樣的城市在廣闊的中國大陸中並不少見，很多甚至仍不為大家所熟知。但在2018年後，隨著Rowingbohe這位玉環中學生的努力，以及維基百科地方志交流群同仁們的合力，玉環這樣一個縣級市得以在中文維基中持續了一年多的高熱度。今天，我們走進玉環，更進一步理解和觀察到這個動態的地方志團隊努力與編輯貢獻過程。
其他簡訊摘要：
【上海9月26日電】維基愛古蹟組織者今天說，現在全球範圍內的活動還有6天結束，各地參與該活動的社群已經上傳了13萬張圖片。截至發稿時，中文社群里唯一參與該活動的台灣維基愛古蹟總共上傳了1100張圖片。
【北京9月25日電】「當紅女人」（Women in Red）計劃說，2014年10月英文維基百科的傳記條目中只有15.53%是記述女性的；但自2015年7月成立以來，「當紅女人」計劃成功幫助將英文維基百科傳記條目的性別比例拉平到2019年9月23日最新統計數據顯示的18.04%，一定程度上地彌平維基百科上的性別差距。
【深圳9月23日電】香港維基媒體社群用戶組（新香港用戶組）決定於9月28日（星期六）在香港理工大學舉辦線下聚會活動。當天是香港用戶組新任理事上任的第一天，也是香港新用戶組獲基金會地方自治體委員會（AffCom）承認的一周年整。
【北京9月14日電】用戶「Catherine Laurence」在距離自己的管理員選舉結束不到1天時宣布退選。退選時，該用戶有27票支持、9票反對，還需要再多9張支持票才能當選。行政員已經正式宣布關閉此次選舉。
【北京9月20日電】印地語維基文庫獲准立項為獨立域名的正式子計劃，正式脫離維基孵育場，建立了 hi.wikisource.org 的子域名。目前項目搬遷工作還在進行中。
【北京9月1日電】今年的維基愛古蹟活動在大多數參加的國家和地區中於9月1日開始，9月30日結束，為期一個月。中文社群中，只有台灣社群在台灣分會的帶領下組織了維基愛古蹟活動。先前分會已被基金會除名的澳門社群、剛剛獲基金會認證的香港新用戶組和所謂「中國維基媒體用戶組」「領導」下中國大陸沒有組織相關活動。台灣分會與台灣「文化部」共同組織有關活動，在台灣地區的活動分成「愛古蹟」和「集記憶」兩個部分，前者自9月1日舉辦至9月30日，後者自10月1日舉辦至10月31日。兩者最後都會進行評選活動，第一名可獲一萬新台幣（約合2300人民幣）的獎金。

【《求聞》東京9月30日訊】日本一些維基人與瑞典駐日本大使館於29日共同舉辦了「WikiGap」編輯馬拉松活動。瑞典駐日大使館表示，本次活動有超過60人參加，編輯了超過40篇條目，成果斐然。《朝日新聞》、《產經新聞》、《日本經濟新聞》、共同社等媒體對此進行了報道。
9月3日日本維基人北村紗衣女士剛剛參加TBS電視台《松子不知道的世界》一訪談節目，收效較好，引發日本各界對維基媒體的關注。這次不到一個月便召開線下編輯活動，可以說是趁熱打鐵。化名「海獺」的日本維基人主持了此次活動，包括北村紗衣在內，有十名左右的日本資深維基人出席。
日語維基的情況在所有語言中相對較好。主辦者說，日語維基中女性人物傳記占比為22.5%；而所有語言中記述日本人的條目中，女性占比為27%，在所有語言維基百科中居前列。據統計維基媒體性別差距比例的網站「Denelezh」的數據，中文維基百科的女性條目占比19.7%，在所有語言中處於中游。北村對《朝日新聞》說，在這些女性人物中，很多都是女性聲優、演員甚至女色情片演員之類站在男人的角度上更獲關注的女性，而女藝術家和女科學家的數量其實並不多。

跟「WUGC」一起被發送了「不合規警告」的還有伊朗維基人用戶組、洛杉磯維基人用戶組等；而在「不合規章的維基媒體地方自治體」分類中的地方自治體數量更多，甚至還有俄羅斯分會、墨西哥分會等。這些地方自治體大多也被發送了第一輪的「不合規警告」。
而與之相反，在恩杜巴內創建的另一個記載合規的地方自治體的分類中，台灣維基媒體協會和新創立的香港維基社群用戶組位列其中。
【多倫多10月22日電】加拿大剛剛進行了一場選舉，而加拿大分會的董事會選舉也正巧在同時舉行。加拿大維基媒體協會「組織發展經理」讓—菲利普·貝蘭在當地時間21日上午宣布，加拿大分會在19日於蒙特婁舉辦了2019年年度大會，同時重新選舉了該分會的董事會成員。
加拿大分會的董事會成員任期兩年。在現在的幾名董事中，有3人還餘1年的任期；另外有4人當選新董事，還有一人在重新選舉後當選。
加拿大分會董事會最特殊的一點是，其成員中大多數人為女性，而男性只占少數。貝蘭說，加拿大分會為此感到十分自豪。

It had an estimated magnitude of 7.5 on the surface wave magnitude scale and an estimated maximum intensity of XI (Extreme) on the Mercalli intensity scale. Antioch and surrounding areas were devastated with a great loss of life and property. It triggered a local tsunami that badly damaged the harbour at Caesarea Maritima. The Roman Emperor Trajan was caught in the earthquake, as was his successor Hadrian. Although the consul Marcus Pedo Vergilianus was killed, they escaped with only slight injuries and later began a program to rebuild the city.

It is part of the Joshinetsu Kogen National Park (locally known as Shigakogen), and is located in the valley of the Yokoyu-River, in the northern part of the prefecture. The name Jigokudani, meaning "Hell's Valley", is due to the steam and boiling water that bubbles out of small crevices in the frozen ground, surrounded by steep cliffs and formidably cold and hostile forests.

- 新冠疫情之下，伊朗當局屏蔽維基百科24小時
【北京3月3日電】伊朗當地時間3月2日下午3時30分（北京時間同日晚8時），伊朗當局開始屏蔽波斯語維基百科。這一屏蔽措施在24小時之後解除。
據監控世界網際網路審查的組織「NetBlocks」的資料顯示，這一持續24小時的屏蔽措施影響了所有伊朗電信運營商對波斯語維基百科的訪問，但其他維基媒體項目和維基百科的其他語言沒有受到影響。波斯語維基百科的手機移動版也沒有受到影響。
「NetBlocks」認為，在各類有關新冠肺炎的流言在伊朗網絡平台上大肆傳播、政要同樣受新冠肺炎感染、民眾普遍批評政府不作為的背景下，伊朗當局屏蔽維基百科的舉動跟新冠肺炎疫情下，當局試圖控制信息流動有很大關係。
美聯社報道說，此舉引發外界對伊朗政府再度全國斷網的擔憂。去年11月，伊朗政府因蔓延全國的遊行示威而決定全國斷網一星期。同在去年11月舉辦的維基百科亞洲月活動也因伊朗政府斷網，當地維基百科編者沒法編寫條目，而延長一星期的時間。

【北京2月29日電】因正在全球多地蔓延的新型冠狀病毒疫情，基金會有關人員宣布，原定於4月3日至5日於德國柏林舉辦的「維基媒體峰會」（Wikimedia Summit），原名「Wikimedia Conference」的會議將被取消。有關會議議程將在網絡上進行，取代線下實體聚會。
【北京2月29日電】酈安治說，有關今年八月預訂在曼谷召開的Wikimania是否會因為新型冠狀病毒而取消的決定將在三月底前公布。
【多倫多3月4日電】今年的北美維基峰會（WikiConference North America）將在加拿大多倫多的多倫多大學舉辦。活動預計的舉辦日期是2020年10月16日至18日。這次峰會預計開支15萬美元，約合102萬人民幣。目前有關這次峰會的撥款請求還在討論中。 針對同性戀LGBT等人士的「酷兒維基百科」（Queering Wikipedia）活動預計將於5月21日至24日在奧地利東北部城市林茨舉辦。這次活動的公開報名時間到3月30日截止。目前這次活動還沒有透露出因當前肆虐全球的新型冠狀病毒COVID-19疫情而取消的消息。 此前，基金會和德國維基媒體協會宣布今年的維基媒體峰會（Wikimedia Summit）的所有線下實體會議因新冠病毒疫情而取消。

內容提要：
- 預定今年8月在泰國曼谷舉辦的Wikimania至明年，但情況仍有餘地；
- 全球多地各類維基活動大多都受新冠肺炎疫情影響嚴重，多個活動被暫停，且即使疫情好轉也難以恢復；
- 中國大陸活動將於5月恢復，台灣地區活動受影響較少，香港用戶組2月3日宣布一切活動暫停。
【北京3月20日電】原本預定2020年8月在泰國曼谷舉辦的Wikimania將因當前正在進行的新型冠狀病毒（COVID-19）疫情而延期到2021年舉辦。
在一封公開信中，維基媒體基金會執行長、執行董事凱薩琳·馬赫以「東亞-東南亞-太平洋區域合作組織（ESEAP）核心組織團隊」「維基媒體掌舵委員會」和「維基媒體基金會活動團隊」的名義，向其他維基人公布了這一決定。
2月底時，酈安治說，要在「3月底之前」作出有關Wikimania能否如期舉辦的決定。ESEAP組織也連同基金會給出聯合聲明，說有關是否延期舉辦的細節將在今後發布。凱薩琳·馬赫的這封發布在北京時間19日凌晨的公開信應該就是這幾次消息所指的正式聲明。
公開信中，凱薩琳·馬赫爾今年曼谷的Wikimania是被「延後」到明年的。至於其具體在明年何時舉辦的細節......

- 英文維基社群為COVID-19疫情製作特別公告，在首頁「置頂」
英文維基百科社群十分罕見地決定把新興冠狀病毒COVID-19疫情的相關條目「置頂」在首頁的新聞動態版面。這個題為「冠狀病毒大流行」的版塊下面還分有「疾病」「病毒」「時間線」「各地區」「影響」五個連結。
維基百科社群普遍對此類變動十分保守。一位英文維基編者說，在他過去13年的編輯生涯中，從未看見像這樣的公告出現在首頁上。
- 美媒：俄羅斯網軍從維基百科裡找素材
《紐約時報》日前報道，俄羅斯網軍為了干預美國2020年總統大選而註冊了成批的臉書（Facebook）帳號，發表支持川普的言論。《紐約時報》說，俄羅斯網軍操控的臉書機器人為了躲過臉書公司對俄羅斯網軍的反制措施，開始從英文維基百科裡複製粘貼文本，添加到自己在臉書上的貼文中。

- 瑞士政府直接用維基百科上的新冠病毒死亡數據
【北京4月3日電】據瑞士「共和國」（Republik）新聞網報道，瑞士聯邦公共衛生局在面對突如其來的新型冠狀病毒COVID-19疫情時，難以收集匯總各方數據，便索性採用維基百科上記錄的新冠病毒死亡人數作為官方發布的統計數字。
「共和國」新聞網跟數個瑞士聯邦公共衛生局的信源確認，瑞士政府早前公布的官方死亡數據是從維基百科以及其他外界媒體報道得來的。這一現象直到3月下旬才得到改善。因為瑞士政府自己的數據匯報體系難以工作，瑞士政府才不得不依賴維基百科這樣的渠道來獲取數據。「共和國」新聞網援引信源說，他們發現在維基百科上，不同的編者會根據媒體報道等來源，把來自瑞士聯邦各州的死亡人數手動計算在一起。
「共和國」新聞網報道說，瑞士國內的新冠疫情匯報體系混亂不堪，很多情況下甚至需要手填紙質表格，然後用傳真發信。

編輯The winner this Translation of the week is Please be bold and help to translation this article! _protective_mask,_Oude_Pekela_(2020)_01.jpg) A cloth facemask is a mask made of common textiles worn over the mouth and nose. Unlike surgical masks and respirators such as N95 masks, they are not subject to regulation, and there is currently little research or guidance on their effectiveness as a protective measure against infectious disease transmission or particulate air pollution. They were routinely used by healthcare workers from the mid 19th century until the mid 20th century. In the 1960s they fell out of use in the developed world in favor of modern surgical masks, but their use has persisted in developing countries. During the 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic, their use in developed countries was revived as a last resort due to shortages of surgical masks and respirators.

During the course of winemaking and in the finished wines, acetic, butyric, lactic and succinic acids can play significant roles. Most of the acids involved with wine are fixed acids with the notable exception of acetic acid, mostly found in vinegar, which is volatile and can contribute to the wine fault known as volatile acidity. Sometimes, additional acids, such as ascorbic, sorbic and sulfurous acids, are used in winemaking.

- 中塞編輯松、中國大陸維基人用戶組2021年活動計劃
【北京1月16日電】中國大陸維基人用戶組策劃將在2021年推出的維基社群活動計劃公布如下：
由中國大陸維基人用戶組與塞爾維亞維基媒體協會（Wikimedia Serbia）合作舉辦的「中國-塞爾維亞文化交流項目」的首期編輯松活動將於2021年2月1日至3月1日舉行。雙方旨在鼓勵兩地社群和編輯參與到編寫中國及塞爾維亞的文化、經濟、歷史、政治、交通、女性等各類條目，以期增進百科質量及兩國維基人之間的友誼，並為後續進一步深化合作奠定基礎。
成功參與並完成該任務的編輯將會獲得小獎品，有關細節正在最後的磋商中進行。具體參加頁面見此。此次合作項目中方主持為Walter Grassroot、遊魂、DavidHuai1999，塞方合作人士為塞爾維亞分會主席米羅斯拉夫·洛齊、社群及計劃經理伊瓦娜·馬德扎雷維。中方的更多討論將在QQ群 924274260 內進行。
在該項目完成後，中國大陸維基人用戶組將立即投身於推動本年度的其他編輯與合作工作，包括「維基愛中國」（Wiki Loves China 2021）和中國-孟加拉國文化交流項目。
「維基愛中國」是一項鼓勵維基人向維基共享資源上傳跟中國有關的圖片、視頻、文檔等媒體資料的活動。維基愛中國活動先前曾在2019年實驗性地舉辦過一次，當時活動僅針對已經有維基百科和維基共享資源貢獻經驗的老手，並未對外主動推廣宣傳。2019年活動期間，有上千跟中國相關的媒體資源被上傳至維基共享資源。2021年的維基愛中國活動將面向新手推廣，也會面向站內宣傳。活動預計將持續11周，其中前3周為面向老手的預熱，中間4周為面向面向新手的推廣階段，最後4周為對本次活動上傳的媒體資料進行分類、整理、評選的階段。本次維基愛中國活動將在同塞爾維亞和孟加拉國社群聯合舉辦的編輯松時間段之外擇機舉行。
北京的維基媒體社群計劃自2021年3月開始恢復定期聚會，預計定期聚會將以一月一辦的頻次舉行，持續至少半年時間。北京月聚舉辦的具體情況將取決於當地社群主持者的個人意願，以及北京的疫情防控情況。聚會細節將舉辦前公布。
我們誠懇地歡迎各位編輯積極參與到這些活動中，共同領導並促進中文維基百科及維基媒體的發展。
- 台中舉辦維基百科20周年慶祝活動
【廈門1月15日電】台灣台中消息：在維基百科成立20周年之際，台中社群舉辦了一次慶祝聚會。在台中當地的線下聚會由維基人「安可」組織，在暱稱「維基基地」的聚會場所舉行，共有四人參與，另有一名大陸維基人通過視頻參會。聚會成員觀看了維基媒體計劃20周年慶祝視頻，分食了蛋糕。聚會持續約2小時30分，主要討論近期維基百科條目的撰寫協作計劃、「館聯」（GLAM）相關情況、維基學院和維基數據相關情況，也進行了新手答疑。與會人員還收集了各方對維基百科的生日祝福，謄寫後張貼在聚會場所的牆壁上。
- 北京元旦聚會成功舉辦
【北京1月2日電】北京2021年元旦維基聚會在1日成功舉辦。共十餘人參加。這是今年國內首次維基百科線下活動。
本次聚會由早10點進行到了晚9點。組織者為新手提供了教學和指導。聚會在北京疫情常態化防控的背景下進行，參加者均採取了防範新冠肺炎的適當措施。
聚會討論了中國大陸維基人用戶組定於2021年舉辦的各類活動和用戶組中長期發展規劃。在去年年底，中國大陸維基人用戶組跟外國社群初步達成了合作活動的意向，用戶組還決定在2021年繼續開辦「維基愛中國」照片上傳活動。聚會初步決定有關活動細節將在1月中旬前後公布。聚會還決定要加速推動用戶組章程修訂。
聚會還研究了其他事項。

【北京2月5日電】當地時間4日，維基媒體基金會宣布凱薩琳·馬赫將在今年4月15日辭去維基媒體基金會CEO一職。
- 邱文述評：維基媒體凱薩琳·馬赫時代的終結
凱薩琳·馬赫將在今年4月15日辭去維基媒體基金會CEO一職。全世界維基人在歡慶維基百科二十周年生日後不久，就迎來了這樣一條重磅消息。
凱薩琳·馬赫在2016年擔任基金會CEO，距今已有五年。2021年的4月15日也是她從事維基的七周年整。基金會在官方新聞稿里，羅列了凱薩琳在任五年來的貢獻，包括增加基金會募集捐款的數量、讀者數量等。
基金會尚未決定繼任CEO的人選。綜合各方消息，基金會將立刻物色繼任人選，理想狀況下在2021-22財年第二季度之前（距今6到9個月之內）完成。基金會財年起止於7月1日，因此年底前應該能夠確定人選。為應對交接，基金會董事會成立了過渡委員會，處理相關交接事宜和和過渡期間的日常事務。自2月8日起，凱薩琳將從基金會的基金會雜務中抽身，開始過渡期的工作。
現在盤點凱薩琳在維基媒體的七年、擔任CEO的五年所做出的貢獻、功過可能還為時過早，但回想最近一段時間發生的事，凱薩琳定是計劃自己辭職之前留下更多的「政治遺產」，包括她曾長期推動，但直到臨辭職前最後一刻才正式推出的《通用行為準則》（Universal Code of Conduct）。而另一件我們可以肯定的事是：在凱薩琳·馬赫的擔任CEO的這五年，維基媒體基金會的職能和手腕逐漸擴大、強硬，維基媒體項目的管理，正在逐步從一種「由下至上」的管理方式，變成「由上至下」的：基金會在社群事務中扮演更加重要的角色。
凱薩琳任內，基金會跟社群之間產生的最大摩擦，莫過於基金會對英文維基管理員Fram的處理。這或許是凱薩琳掌權下，基金會權力逐漸擴張的最大表現，也是社群眼中基金會最大的污點。這五年裡，「基金會行動」這一個曾被視為類似英國女王手中的「虛權」被基金會更頻繁地拿來使用。2019年6月，英文維基百科管理員Fram被基金會在沒有給出明確理由的情況下直接按基金會行動封禁一年，引發英文維基社群巨大反彈，英文維基數位管理員為抗議此事而辭職。儘管社群大比重反對基金會對Fram的封禁，但基金會沒有做出絲毫讓步。雖然事後基金會採取了一些舉措，似乎不再像Fram封禁案一樣使用基金會行動，但其效果和力度仍有待時間的檢驗。
基金會應該只負責維護伺服器嗎？維基百科應該安安靜靜地只當一個百科全書嗎？維基應該參與社會和政治嗎？每個人可能都有自己的想法，但在過去的五年裡，凱薩琳對這三個問題給出了自己的答案：在基金會過去兩個財年裡，維護伺服器的開支僅占基金會總開支的不到3%，年度增幅也不足3%。在2020財年裡，基金會年度開支為1.12億美元，其中伺服器開支只有240萬美元。
在凱薩琳的帶領下，基金會的捐款數量屢創新高，在第三世界的發展頗有建樹，2010年代早期陷入瓶頸的英文維基和已開發國家維基社群，也確實通過女權主義、參與現實政治等因素，找到了一股推動力，扭轉了編者數量下滑的困境。基金會官方新聞稿寫道，維基媒體計劃每月編輯者數量自她2016年掌門以來至今上漲38%，且仍保持上漲勢頭；其中2020年最後一個季度上漲8.1%。新聞稿還寫道，凱薩琳為維基媒體在下一個十年的發展指明了方向，增加編輯者性別、種族等的多樣性，增加維基百科及其姊妹計劃的讀者數量，夯實了基金會的資金基礎，並把維基媒體發展成了一個全球運動。除了社群門外的一地雞毛，凱薩琳的貢獻的確可圈可點，絕非乏善可陳。
- 曼谷Wikimania取消
【北京1月27日電】預計今年舉辦的曼谷Wikimania將轉為線上活動。原定於2020年夏天舉辦的曼谷Wikimania此前已經因新冠疫情延後了一年。
- AddisWang管理員權限被移除
【北京1月22日電】作為所謂「中國維基媒體用戶組」主要成員的用戶「AddisWang」因長期不活躍，管理員權限被移除。
自2018年以來，AddisWang的帳號變得極其不活躍，通常數個月才做一筆編輯。他上次編輯做在2020年6月。在按照規定進行警告後，AddisWang帳號的管理員權限在1月22日中午被監管員移除。他擔任「協調員」的「中國維基媒體用戶組」（WUGC）早先也因多次不遞交活動報告，被基金會取消承認。

Please be bold and help to translation this article!  The Kefermarkt altarpiece (German: Kefermarkter Flügelaltar) is an altarpiece in Late Gothic style in the parish church in Kefermarkt, Upper Austria. It was commissioned by the knight Christoph von Zellking and is estimated as finished in 1497. The richly decorated wooden altarpiece depicts the saints Peter, Wolfgang and Christopher in its central section. The side panels depict scenes from the life of Mary, and the altarpiece also has an intricate superstructure and two side figures showing saints George and Florian. The identity of its maker is unknown, but at least two skilled sculptors appear to have created the main statuary of the altarpiece. Throughout the centuries, the altarpiece has been altered and lost its original paint and gilding. A major restoration was made in the 19th century under the leadership of writer Adalbert Stifter. The altarpiece has been described as "one of the greatest achievements in late-medieval sculpture in the German-speaking area."

The field is located in the east of India in Jharia, Jharkhand. The fields have suffered a coal bed fire since at least 1916, resulting in 37 millions tons of coal consumed by the fire, and significant ground subsidence and water and air pollution in local communities including the city of Jharia. The resulting pollution has led to a government agency designated for moving local populations, however, little progress has been made in the relocation.

Please be bold and help translate this article!  Tutankhamun's trumpets are a pair of trumpets found in the burial chamber of the Eighteenth Dynasty Pharaoh Tutankhamun. The trumpets, one of sterling silver and one of bronze or copper, are considered to be the oldest operational trumpets in the world, and the only known surviving examples from ancient Egypt. The trumpets were found in 1922 by Howard Carter during the excavation of Tutankhamun's tomb. The bronze trumpet was discovered in the tomb's antechamber in a large chest containing various military objects and walking sticks. The silver trumpet was subsequently found in the burial chamber. Both are finely engraved, with decorative images of the gods Ra-Horakhty, Ptah and Amun. The silver trumpet's bell is engraved with a whorl of sepals and calices representing a lotus flower, and the praenomen and nomen of the king. The bronze trumpet may in fact be made of copper; the metal has not yet been analysed. Similar looking trumpets feature in Egyptian wall-paintings that are usually, though not always, associated with military scenes. Silent for over 3,000 years, the trumpets were sounded before a live audience of an estimated 150 million listeners through an international BBC broadcast aired on 16 April 1939. The trumpets were played by a bandsman, James Tappern of Prince Albert's Own 11th Royal Hussars regiment. The recording was recently featured, and can be heard on the BBC Radio 4 program Ghost Music. Rex Keating, who presented the 1939 broadcast, later claimed that during a rehearsal, the silver trumpet shattered, and Alfred Lucas, a member of Carter's team who had restored the finds, was so distressed he needed to go to hospital. Due to their fragility, it is unlikely the trumpets will be played again in any official musical reconstructions.

The first was produced between 1804 and 1806 for Napoleon I and was presented by him to Alexander I of Russia in 1808, as a diplomatic gift following the Treaties of Tilsit. It is now held in the State Museum of Ceramics in Russia. The second set was produced between 1810 and 1812. It was intended as a gift from Napoleon to Empress Joséphine. The service consisted of 72 plates with the wells depicting scenes from Egypt based on sketches made by Vivant Denon. Joséphine refused to accept the service, which she described as "too severe". It was returned to the factory and given as a gift to the Duke of Wellington by Louis XVIII in 1818, following the Bourbon Restoration. The service was purchased by the Victoria and Albert Museum in 1979 and, except for one plate, was loaned to English Heritage to display at Apsley House, London, the former residence of the first duke.

《求聞》：維基百科的錢多到能在裡面游泳——但為什麼它還在乞求別人捐款呢？
編輯 導讀：5月，英文科技媒體「Daily Dot」發表題為《維基百科的錢多到能在裡面游泳——但為什麼它還在乞求別人捐款呢？》的文章。維基媒體基金會的錢可能真的多到能在裡面游泳——現在基金會每年能籌集到的金額已經可以達到1億美元。而該文章再度引發外界對維基媒體基金會在募捐方面的質疑和爭論。英國《每日電訊報》、阿根廷《號角報》等媒體也有對這一話題的延伸討論。
《每日電訊報》網站文章以《你以為只有BBC不中立？來看看維基百科吧》為題，主張維基百科存在偏向左派、自由派的不中立問題。《每日電訊報》網站文章和「Daily Dot」網站文章均嚴詞抨擊基金會募捐「吃相」難看，明明錢夠花，從沒有倒閉的風險，卻又用催人淚下的廣告向讀者要更多的錢，怎麼吃都不飽。兩篇文章還質疑基金會新成立的「潮汐基金」，認為基金會把大量結餘款轉到「潮汐基金」，但「潮汐基金」卻是個黑箱無底洞。
「Wired」網站和另一篇來自英文維基《路標》月刊的報道則深入分析了維基媒體基金會旗下新成立的一家商業性、營利性的有限責任公司，跟維基媒體基金會平時的非營利屬性背道而馳。這家公司將為谷歌、亞馬遜等大型網際網路巨頭提供更細化的維基內容服務。基金會從來沒缺過錢，不可能會倒閉，但它有沒有可能會變質呢？
【「Daily Dot」網站5月24日文章】題：維基百科的錢多到能在裡面游泳——但為什麼它還在乞求別人捐款呢？ 作者：英文維基百科《路標》月刊前編輯安德烈亞斯·科爾比
從讀者的角度出發，基金會越來越鼓的錢包基本沒有改變維基百科的界面和觀感。假如有人從2007年時光穿越到現在——維基百科在2007年變成全世界前十大的網站——可能根本留意不到維基百科有什麼變化。但是，維基媒體基金會卻已經變得認不出來了。在2007年，基金會只有11名員工，預算只有200萬美元。
去年夏天，在經歷了錢太多的煩惱之後的基金會在印度發起了首次籌款活動，建議讀者每人捐贈150盧比（約2美元或13人民幣）。捐款橫幅上寫著「維基百科真的需要你」「我們需要您的捐款來保護維基百科的獨立性」「幫助我們保持維基百科運轉並不斷發展」，這在印度引起了對維基百科就快倒閉或可能設置付費牆的擔憂。
長久以來，維基人一直對這些籌款橫幅感到失望。維基百科理應是「自由的百科全書」，而不是讓讀者感到愧疚的百科全書。維基百科從未面臨下線、需要廣告或失去獨立性的風險。年復一年地，維基媒體基金會都拿到了比上一年更多的錢，招兵買馬。
【《每日電訊報》網站5月27日評論員文章】
從維基百科籌款橫幅的頻率和咄咄逼人的特點來看，你可能以為它是一個資金緊張、除了骨幹之外什麼都沒有的項目，發了瘋地把渾身上下僅剩的最後一枚鋼鏰兒塞進電錶里，來維持項目運轉不被停電。然而實際上，這些募捐請求年復一年地能為維基百科籌集到遠遠超出其運營成本的資金——而這募捐請求似乎成為了該網站的永久功能。據其前產品研發部副部長估計，維基百科的運營成本大概在每年1000萬美元（任何一家成規模的大學都能毫不費力地運營這麼一家網站）。而在本財年才剛過去了9個月，它就募捐到了1.42億美元。
十年前，在曾經把一個判過刑的罪犯給推上營運長的位置之後，基金會決定是時候金盆洗手，並將其集資的方式專業化。在這之後，大筆的錢滾滾而來。
（據原文中連結到的「The Register」網站2007年的報道，當時維基媒體基金會的資金曾一度由一個名叫卡羅琳·博思韋爾·多蘭的人管理。報道指，她在受僱為基金會的營運長時，在美國至少三個州有犯罪記錄，涉嫌開空頭支票、扒竊、酒駕、開槍打傷她男友胸部，且她在基金會走馬上任時正在酒駕肇事逃逸後的假釋期間。報道指，卡羅琳·博思韋爾·多蘭在2007年1月上任，7月辭職，期間執掌基金會財務狀況長達半年。基金會對「The Register」網站表示，不知道她有犯罪記錄。更多細節可以參閱英語維基新聞當時的報道——譯者注）
看著眼前的錢，基金會做了每個官僚機構都喜歡做的事：擴張。基金會現在有450名職員和合同工，律師事務所和政治遊說團體也從中受益。除了偶爾能獲得的撥款之外，那些真正創作內容、在黑心煤窯里幹得滿臉煤灰的人拿不到任何工資。如果卡爾·馬克思現在還活著，他或許不會跟恩格斯一起去參觀曼徹斯特的貧民窟，而是詫異地看著維基百科樓上樓下的世界。馬克思就不會去寫《資本論》，而是《維基論》。
維基媒體基金會長期以來跟柯林頓家族有著良好的關係，並且這關係愈發緊密。自2016年，它就用了柯林頓家族的公關專家克雷格·米納西安。米納西安的公司也成為了從基金會拿錢最多的外包公司，與此同時，米納西安仍然保持著他在柯林頓家族那裡的全職工作。而基金會則選擇了把捐贈基金存放在了「潮汐基金會」那裡。這個「潮汐」基金網絡容許匿名的捐贈者來支持偏向左派的事務，一些人稱之為為民主黨利益的「黑金集團」。
【英文維基百科《路標》月刊3月28日報道】小標題：企業版API 記者：Smallbones
諾阿姆·科恩發表在「Wired」網站上發表的題為《維基百科終於開始要求科技巨頭們交錢了》一文是本月最大的一條新聞。文章講述維基媒體基金會的營利性子公司「維基媒體有限責任公司」以及該公司擬推出的產品「維基媒體企業版」，通稱「企業版API」。目前有關這個話題，已有百餘篇相關新聞，但科恩仍然是幾乎所有記者中唯一一個能直接引用基金會員工原話的人。

Please be bold and help translate this article!  Behavior-altering parasites are parasites with two or more hosts, capable of causing changes in the behavior of one of their hosts to enhance their transmission, sometimes directly affecting the hosts' decision-making and behavior control mechanisms. They do this by making the intermediate host, where they may reproduce asexually, more likely to be eaten by a predator at a higher trophic level which becomes the definitive host where the parasite reproduces sexually. Examples can be found in bacteria, protozoa, viruses, and animals. Parasites may also alter the host behaviour to increase the protection to the parasites or their offspring. The term bodyguard manipulation is used for such mechanisms. Among the behavioral changes caused by parasites is carelessness, making their hosts easier prey. The protozoan Toxoplasma gondii, for example, infects small rodents and causes them to become careless and may even cause them to become attracted to the smell of feline urine, both of which increase their risk of predation and the parasite's chance of infecting a cat, its definitive host.

Please be bold and help translate this article!  William Morrison (23 August 1855 – 29 August 1927) was a Scottish chemist. His background in chemistry piqued his interest in improving storage batteries. He concentrated on how to produce the most available energy for a unit of weight for efficiency in the working of an individual battery cell. Eventually, he developed storage batteries far more powerful than what had then been available. To demonstrate his batteries, Morrison installed 24 of them on a common horse-drawn carriage and attached an electric motor to the rear axle to be powered by them. Through various innovations, he developed the controls for the power used and the vehicle's steering so that the driver had complete control. Morrison invented the first practical self-powered four-wheeled electric carriage in the United States. His electric vehicle was the first to be driven in Chicago and in his hometown of Des Moines, Iowa. This electric horseless buggy of the late 19th century helped pave the way for the hybrid electric automobile of the 21st century.

Please be bold and help translate this article!  The composition of Madagascar's wildlife reflects the fact that the island has been isolated for about 88 million years. The prehistoric breakup of the supercontinent Gondwana separated the Madagascar-Antarctica-India landmass from the Africa-South America landmass around 135 million years ago. Madagascar later split from India about 88 million years ago, allowing plants and animals on the island to evolve in relative isolation. As a result of the island's long isolation from neighboring continents, Madagascar is home to an abundance of plants and animals found nowhere else on Earth. Approximately 90 percent of all plant and animal species found in Madagascar are endemic, including the lemurs (a type of strepsirrhine primate), the carnivorous fossa and many birds. This distinctive ecology has led some ecologists to refer to Madagascar as the "eighth continent", and the island has been classified by Conservation International as a biodiversity hotspot. As recent as 2021, the "smallest reptile on earth" was also found in Madagascar, known as the Brookesia nana, or nano-chameleon.

The Brazilian government refused to allow French fishing vessels to catch spiny lobsters 100 miles (160 km) off the Brazilian northeast coast, arguing that lobsters "crawl along the continental shelf", while the French maintained that "lobsters swim" and that, therefore, they might be caught by any fishing vessel from any country. The dispute was resolved unilaterally by Brazil, which extended its territorial waters to a 200-nautical-mile (370 km; 230 mi) zone, taking in the disputed lobsters' bed.

Improvements in the technology resulted in more elaborate roller prints in bright, rich colours from the 1820s; Turkey red and chrome yellow were particularly popular.

Please be bold and help translate this article! The India naming dispute in 1947 refers to the argument over the use of the name India during and after the partition of British Raj, between the countries of Pakistan and the Republic of India. This dispute involved key figures such as Lord Mountbatten, the last Viceroy of British Raj, and Muhammad Ali Jinnah, the leader of the Muslim League and a founder of Pakistan. By 1947, the British Raj was going to be divided into two new nation states – Hindustan and Pakistan. Jinnah was initially convinced that Hindustan would not use the term India, since it lacked indigenous pedigree, etymologically and historically India meant the Indus Valley (modern-Pakistan). He also opposed the use of the name India as it would cause confusion regarding history. The disagreement had significant implications for national identity and international recognition.

Please be bold and help translate this article! B1 is a medical-based Paralympic classification for blind sport. Athletes in this classification are totally or almost totally blind. It is used by a number of blind sports including blind tennis, para-alpine skiing, para-Nordic skiing, blind cricket, blind golf, five-a-side football, goalball and judo. Some other sports, including adaptive rowing, athletics and swimming, have equivalents to this class. The B1 classification was first created by the IBSA in the 1970s, and has largely remained unchanged since despite an effort by the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) to move towards a more functional and evidence-based classification system. Classification is often handled on the international level by the International Blind Sports Federation (IBSA) but it sometimes handled by national sport federations. There are exceptions for sports like athletics and cycling, where classification is handled by their own governing bodies. Equipment utilized by competitors in this class may differ from sport to sport, and may include sighted guides, guide rails, beeping balls and clapsticks. There may be some modifications related to equipment and rules to specifically address needs of competitors in this class to allow them to compete in specific sports. Some sports specifically do not allow a guide, whereas cycling and skiing require one.

Please be bold and help translate this article! The Cappadocian calendar was a solar calendar that was derived from the Persian Zoroastrian calendar. It is named after the historic region Cappadocia in present-day Turkey, where it was used. The calendar, which had 12 months of 30 days each and five epagomenal days, originated between 550 and 330 BC, when Cappadocia was part of the Persian Achaemenid Empire. The Cappadocian calendar was identical to the Zoroastrian calendar; this can be seen in its structure, in the Avestan names and in the order of the months. The Cappadocian calendar reflects the Iranian cultural influence in the region.

Apart from a strip of the north and west of the main island, where crops are grown with irrigation, the land is arid. With a very hot dry summer, a mild winter, and brackish groundwater, the plants need adaptations in order to survive. Nevertheless, 196 species of higher plant have been recorded here, as well as about seventeen species of terrestrial mammals, many birds and reptiles, and many migratory birds visit the islands in autumn and spring.

Please be bold and help translate this article!  The little Danes experiment was a 1951 Danish operation where 22 Greenlandic Inuit children were sent to Danish foster families in an attempt to re-educate them as "little Danes". While the children were all supposed to be orphans, most were not. Six children were adopted while in Denmark, and sixteen returned to Greenland, only to be placed in Danish-speaking orphanages and never live with their families again. Half of the children experienced mental health disturbances, and half of them died in young adulthood. The government of Denmark officially apologised in 2020, after several years of demands from Greenlandic officials.
